One gloomy day

The kids had school last Saturday. So, whether we liked it or not, we got to get up early on a Saturday. And it turned out to be one gloomy day.

The night before, it rained and it made a very nice, cooling morning. Who want to wake up at such weather? 

Anyway, after dropped off the kids in school, I went home and waited for the big man and the youngest to wake up from their sleep. Slightly after 8am, we went out for our breakfast. My man wanted to try the curry noodle, Ipoh style by Dennis that I had few weeks ago in Ah Yen Cafe, so we drove all the way to Wan Alwi for our breakfast.


We seated right in front of the kolo mee stall. I ordered a bowl of kolo mee to share with my boy.


My man had his dose from the curry mee, which he commented it did tasted like the Ipoh curry noodle but this one wasn't salty enough for him.


My kolo mee took quite sometime to arrive but it tasted nice for me and Jamie. Then just as we finished our breakfast, the rain started to pour. Super heavy some more!


On our way home, the rain stopped. As sudden as it came.  How I wished to sleep in in such weather....


However we went for our grocery shopping and my man got himself this diy barber kit from Mr. DIY.  Well, he planned to cut the boys' hair at home, so he was getting this kit to start his hair cut business. Lol.


Of course his first customer would be this little one. He was ready to be "experimented". At his age, he is still ignorant and unaware of anything. Lol.

Before

After

In the evening, we went to this bak kut teh shop for dinner. Nice to have piping hot bak kut teh that evening.

And we spent the rest of the evening watching DVD at home.

We all wished we could sleep in when the morning is cool and gloomy. Both the curry noodle and kolo mee are great for a cool morning. I am craving for a bak kut teh now...

The weather is so damn hot and cool here daily until people get headaches. Today it is as hot as 38C but the rain is coming soon. So predictable.

I think the short hair is nice and made him handsome! So cool ya.

I miss the kolo mee in Taman Jurong that has closed down...

Libby said...

Yes, the last few days in SG also got some rain, sometimes worse still after the rain, cos the heat "evaporated".

What I read here is a heartwarming family day spent.

My nephew's hair also cut by his Nanny's hubby at home.

These are definitely the kind of food that comforts on rainy weather days. ^.^

That's a really nice barber kit too - good job on the haircut.
